Zygomatic implants are a specialized type of dental implant used for patients who have severe upper jaw bone loss and are unable to support traditional implants. Instead of anchoring into the jawbone, zygomatic implants are longer and secured into the zygomatic (cheek) bone, providing a strong and stable foundation for fixed teeth.
This innovative technique eliminates the need for bone grafting or sinus lifts, making it a faster and more efficient solution for full-mouth restoration.
Zygomatic implants are ideal for individuals who:
Have severe bone loss in the upper jaw.
Have been told they are not candidates for traditional implants due to insufficient bone structure.
Do not want to undergo complex bone grafting procedures.
Are experiencing denture discomfort and want a permanent, secure solution.
Need full arch rehabilitation for a complete set of teeth.
| Feature | Zygomatic Implants | Traditional Implants |
|---|---|---|
| Bone Requirement | Suitable for severe bone loss | Requires adequate bone density |
| Surgical Complexity | Advanced but eliminates bone grafting | May require bone grafting |
| Healing Time | Faster recovery, no graft healing | Longer if bone grafting is needed |
| Implant Stability | Secured in the cheekbone for enhanced stability | Anchored in the jawbone |
| Final Prosthesis | Can often receive teeth immediately | May require months before final teeth are placed |
Mild swelling and discomfort in the first few days, managed with medication.
Minimal downtime, most patients resume daily activities within 48 hours.
Soft food diet recommended during the initial healing phase.
Regular follow-ups ensure proper implant integration and recovery.
